Ohh spring of days long ago   Blooming and bright   Far have you fluttered away   No more the skies, as your light caroling birds, wakened and glisten for me   Bearing all joy for my heart      Loved on how far, from my life has to flown, plainly to me does the springtime return   It brings me never again, dark is the sun, dead are the days of delight   Cold is my heart and the snow cast away, life is in vain
